Detail of a cast of the west frieze of the Parthenon in the British Museum (unusually the original sculptures remained in situ and are now in the Aropolis museum. These casts however provide a good opportunity to get closer to the sculpture and show the detail in better condition than the originals now do, having suffered two more centuries of weather and pollution after these casts were taken.
The famous frieze of the Parthenon was the most ambitious ever conceived, forming a continuous strip of sculpted relief narrative around the perimeter of the inner part (cella) of the temple. It was thus the least easily seen, being set high within the collonnade and originally richly coloured to increase legibility from such a distant, shadowy position.
All four sides constituted a single continuous subject, the Panathenaic Procession, held every four years in honour of the Temple and city's patron Goddess Athena. It begins on the west side with various riders making preparation, then runs eastwards along bothe the long sides, north and south, before culminating in a group of seated deites on the east side (above the former main entrance). The procession is largely made up horses and riders in front of which are/were chariots, musicians, offering bearers and sacrificial animals (all of these latter groups suffered most in the explosion of 1687).
The frieze remained almost complete and in good condition for Jacques Carrey to draw most of it in 1674. Only thirteen years later disaster struck when the Pathenon was blown apart by the Turkish gunpowder store within hit by a Venetian shell. The inner part of the temple was mostly demolished, leaving most of the frieze prone at ground level, where much was lost to souvenir hunters, lime burners and casual vandalism before Elgin's team arrived.
Those sculptures that survived the explosion of 1687 were mostly removed by Lord Elgin's agents in the 1800s and sent to London where they currently remain. However he had to leave most of the west frieze in situ on the Parthenon where they remained until the late 1990s. Casts taken by Elgin's team show the west frieze has suffered damage from weathering and air pollution. It has now been restored for display in the new Acropolis Museum in Athens. Significant sections of the north, east and south friezes also remain in Athens.
The sculptures of the Parthenon (pediments, metopes and frieze)remain generally recognised as the most accomplished (both in terms of technical mastery and beauty of design) scheme of architectural sculpture ever realised. That so much of it has been lost (particulaly as the building remained substantially intact and in use continuously until 1687) is a tragedy, judging by what remains.

Granger continues to settle in. He was grim and withdrawn today when strangers were working inside his paddock. He relaxed after they left, becoming positively frisky, running great looping ellipses around me, and bounding and playing with Fidget and Mouse. It was great to see how happy he was. He still doesn't want to be touched of course, and his stand-off distance is about the same. It looks like it will be weeks to months before we can touch him freely.
Granger's getting along well with the other doggies. He seems more thrilled to be with Fidget and Mouse than they are to be with him, though they're all behaving admirably. Rabbit, who doesn't allow any dog other than Fidget to touch her, barked Granger off when he gave a play slap in front of her. He tried again a couple of hours later and obtained the same result. Both times he backed right off and didn't seem upset at all.
We've now completely switched Granger over from the diet he was getting at Home at Last Dog Rescue to our own homemade dog food. He seems pleased with the new diet, and he had no GI upsets when switching over. We are gradually ramping up his rations. He needs a lot of food because he's underweight and living outdoors. (BTW, living outdoors in winter is not a hardship. Pyrs are happiest when they're living outdoors and the temperature is around -10C (14F)). Granger's getting a vitamin supplement, soft, pressure-cooked pork bones for calcium and phosphorous, and hard bones for teething. His molars are coming in months late owing to malnutrition.
The Pyrs have to eat more during the winter because they're outside. In fact it's best if their winter weight allows just enough fat to make their ribs a little hard to feel. Here's what we fed them today:
Mouse and Granger - 800gm each
Fidget - 500gm (Fidget is only outdoors at night)
Rabbit - 300gm
That's 2.4 kg (5+ lb) per day! We make dog food in 19-kg (41-lb) batches, so we'll be making food about every 8 days. It takes a day to cook up a batch, but hands-on time is only an hour.
I tied a few Spanish ring knots, with 0.9mm cord, on my first fidget spinner (low budget model).

Go Falcons!
Fidget got a fungal ear infection during hurricane week. We treated it with a mixture of isopropanol, gentian violet and boric acid, chemicals that we keep on-hand. Something from the azole antifungal family would have been less colorful, but we used what we had. Fidget's infection cleared promptly, but she's showing some side effects as seen above. :)
And I've been blue and exhausted myself since we got our power restored and I had leisure to collapse. I was just finishing up a round of antibiotics for bronchitis when the storm blew in. Molly was sick with a cold the whole time our power was out. I will get to your photostreams later in the week, I promise.
I am genuinely grateful for how well things worked out for us during and after the storm, but things are still pretty bad in the Northeast.
It was 23F (-5C) last night and a million people are still without power. Most of them were poorly prepared. Most didn't have a clue as to how to survive comfortably or even safely without power or running water. They're suffering pretty badly, at least according to the standards by which developed nations measure such things.
There's a nor'easter, a harsh species of Atlantic storm, coming tomorrow. It's not clear whether or where the thing will come ashore, but there will be two to four three to six inches of snow, more downed trees and further flooding, especially if it comes in at high tide. We're not expecting it to amount to much here, but I picked up a couple of chains for the chainsaw yesterday in case we had more downed trees. There were five of us lined up buying saw chains. All the pre-cut chains had long since vanished. The shop was making them up from raw stock as we bought them.
FEMA has been largely absent here. I have not seen one FEMA worker since Sandy struck. I absolutely do not speak ill of FEMA employees. The ones I have met have been helpful and knowledgeable.. It's only that the probability of encountering a FEMA worker becomes vanishingly low if the scale of the disaster is sufficiently large.
In my direct experience, FEMA has long been unprepared to deal with large-scale disasters, and that, at least nominally, is their job. They're fine when a tornado wipes out one or two square miles -- as happened to my Mom's house and neighborhood -- but they are hopelessly overwhelmed when the disaster area extends for a couple of hundred miles.
I'm speaking from experience here. We have family on the Gulf Coast and have seen FEMA up close during the Katrina disaster and in the aftermath of Rita and Ike. I mean, we were there. Molly's father died of exposure during Hurricane Rita as he was waiting for an airlift to an inland hospital. People are still dying in New Jersey and New York today.
The lesson here is that if you have enough resources to make disaster preparations, you need to do so. Despite our fancy US standard of living, North America's Atlantic and Gulf Coasts are dangerous places to live. If you rely on federal, state or local government for help in a large-scale disaster, you're very likely not to get any help at all. The only people here who fared well in the recent hurricane were those who were prepared to take care of every single detail themselves.
When a large-scale disaster hits, you don't -- and I mean really don't -- want to be in a densely populated American city or to be dependent upon others to save your bacon. We're grateful we got out of this one relatively unscathed.

I'm away from Flickr because I'm spending all my time working on antennas. I hope to be back next week.
Designed this toy as a fidget to help with fine motor developement as well as bilateral integration. There are 2 marbles running mirror image paths.

There are many benefits to labelling children's clothes, including making it easier to keep track of their belongings and ensuring that they are properly dressed for school or other activities. Iron-on clothing labels are a convenient and durable option for labeling clothes, and they can be easily applied at home with a few simple supplies.
